Nora is writing statements as shown below to prove that if segment st is parallel to segment rq then which equation can she use as statement 5 x=45 ( been real fast)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Nora is writing statement as shown in figure to prove that if segments  ST is parallel to segment RQ then ST is x=45

We have to find the Statement 5

Statement 1: Segment ST is parallel to segment RQ.

Reason: Given

Statement 2:Angle QRS is congruentn to angle TSP

Reason:Corresponding angles are formed

Statement 3: Angle SPT is congruent to angle RPQ

Reason: Reflexive property of angles

Statement 4: Triangle SPT is similar to triangle RPQ

Reason: Angle-Angle similarity postulates

Statement:

Reason: Corresponding sides of similar triangle are equal in proportion.

Answer :

Option B.

Because the sides are corresponding. And to get the whole triangle, we need to add both similar sides.
